Clarifier Systems
High-rate settling for streams that need chemical treatment, gravity separation, or both.
Overview
More settling area in the same footprint
Ion Agua specializes in treating wastewater generated from sources which might need chemical treatment and/or gravity settling. Tube settlers and lamella clarifiers are common high-rate clarifiers used for pre-treatment of industrial wastewater.
Both work on the same principle: inclined plates or tubes multiply the effective settling area within a given tank volume, so a high-rate unit achieves in a compact footprint what a conventional clarifier needs several times the plan area to do.
Ion Agua offers customized design and fabrication of these clarifier systems using various construction materials, equipment and media.
- Tube settlers and lamella plate packs to suit the solids
- Integrated coagulation and flocculation where chemistry is needed
- Sludge hoppers with scraper or hopper-bottom withdrawal
- Custom fabrication in steel, stainless or FRP
Applications
Typical duties
- Pre-treatment of industrial wastewater — the duty tube settlers and lamella clarifiers are most commonly used for
- Chemical treatment — for streams that require coagulation and precipitation before settling
- Gravity settling — for streams where solids separate under gravity alone
- Customised fabrication — built around your stream using various construction materials, equipment and media
